What is Silver Junmei black tea ?
Silver Junmei, born in 2005, is a premium-grade masterpiece among Lapsang Souchong black teas, often referred to alongside Golden Junmei as the "Twin Jewels of Black Tea." Sourced from wild tea trees growing at 1500-1800 meters above sea level in Wuyi Mountain, it is made exclusively from one bud and one leaf plucked before Grain Rain (Guyu). It takes 50,000 tender buds to produce just one pound of tea, making the raw material as rare as gold.
Crafted using traditional handmade techniques without smoking or sifting, the tea leaves are tight, slender, and eyebrow-shaped, with a silvery-gray hue and subtle golden tips. The aroma is elegant and refined, with notes of flowers and fruits. When brewed, the liquor is golden and translucent, offering a fresh, mellow, and sweet flavor with a harmonious blend of honeyed sweetness and longan aroma. The brewed leaves are even and coppery, and the tea remains flavorful even after ten infusions.
Due to its demanding production process and limited yield, Silver Junmei embodies both the wild essence of nature and the precision of masterful craftsmanship.
Brewing and Enjoyment Tips
This tea embodies the unique transformation brought by time. For the first rinse, use boiling water to quickly wash the tea leaves for no more than 5 seconds, then discard the water. This step helps awaken the tea and remove any storage-related odors. For the best experience, it is recommended to use traditional brewing methods to fully release its aged characteristics.
Recommended Brewing Methods
Gaiwan Brewing :
- Capacity：110ml Gaiwan
- Water：Mineral Water or Purified Water
- Water Temperature：95-100℃
- Brewing Times：8-10 times
- Tea Water Ratio：Around 1:22（Adjust according to your own taste）
- Brewing Time Once：For the first three infusions, steep the tea for 5-10 seconds and pour out immediately. For each subsequent infusion, increase the steeping time by 5 seconds.
Storage Guidelines
To ensure the best quality of tea, the ideal way to store it is in vacuum-sealed packaging, kept in a cool, dark, and dry place. Avoid exposure to strong odors and air. For sealed storage, using a tin can or a double-lidded metal can is recommended. For even better results, you can store the sealed tea in the refrigerator or a dry storage container.
